We were greeted in Sydney by a big down pour of rain. We stayed in a hostel on Elizabeth St which is about a 20 minute walk to the harbour, where its all happening. Over the Weekend we had a walk round the Opera House and the Sydney Bridge, taking the classic tourist shots. The Rocks market is more suited for the "Raa Raa's" so was obviously out of our budget range to buy anything. The Sydney Aquarium was also a highlight From Sydney we got on the Oz E...

Western Australia is alot different to the South Island, first thing you notice is the heat and apparently its quite cool!? On Sunday 5th we woke up with a slight hangover after a quality night in Queenie. Ended up hitting a Drum & Base club for a bit. It was raining and How was hoping that his Canyoning was cancelled as he didn't feel like jumping off 10ft rocks into 4 degrees water with a hang over. But 'luckily' for him the clouds cleared and he went canyo...
